I bought a Nook Tablet at B&N store and then began searching for a case and screen protector on Amazon. Spent almost two weeks looking and reading all the reviews. Good reviews about the other cases sold by CrazyonDigital. $12.95 for case and shipping and it arrived in a few days via USPS. The package included a screen protector, case, and rubber bracelet. I bought this case because of the ability to prop it at an angle to read in landscape view without "constructing" the stand in any way. I looked at all the ways the other cases for the Nook "stand" for reading or emailing etc. This front inside cover has evenly spaced leather strips sewn down that hold the bottom of the Nook at 3 different angles. Only half of the back of the interior piece that protects the Nook attaches to the case exterior allowing the Nook to move forward to the chosen position. The Nook tablet fits perfectly - none of the Nook edges are protruding beyond the edges of the case. No outside closure but my sister's from B&N doesn't have one either and it's not really necessary. I have a wide band I can secure it with if desired. There are no cutouts on the back for the speaker but I tested to see if that matters and it most certainly does not. Played Pandora radio and can hear it perfectly even from another room. The charger port, headphone jack, and volume controls are all easily accessible. The inside lining is described as micro-fiber but I would say more suede-like. Whatever it is, it works great. The description says it has a leather cover. Whether it is or not doesn't really matter for $9.98. It looks good for a "book" cover and is not tacky or cheap looking. Plan to order one tonight for my Mom for the Nook Tablet we're giving her for Christmas.

I was looking for a case for my Nook Color and I had a few requirements - it had to look somewhat professional (none of this neon-colored junk that other companies seem to be producing), it had to have a front cover that would stay closed, and if it could do a landscape mode then so much the better. This one fit the bill and was relatively inexpensive. The case itself is a fine-grain leather, and the Nook fits well inside. It's not a perfect fit, but considering the price, I'm not going to complain too loudly. There are two small magnets built in to the front cover and the harness the Nook slips into that keep the front closed when it's not in use. The hinge on the back of the case folds around to let you position it in three different landscape angles, which is a nice bonus.

The downsides to the case (and the kit that comes with it) are as follows: The harness that holds the Nook in place is just a hair too large in spots, and as such you'll have to shift it around to get a set of headphones plugged in properly. The same thing goes for the area by the volume up/down buttons - they're usable, but the case almost interferes with the volume down button. The wrist strap is, in my not-so-humble opinion, useless. I'm not going to be walking around with this thing dangling from my arm. Lastly (for the case), it would have been nice to have a cutout on the back of the interior case for the speaker, because audio playback is a bit muffled even at max volume. Finally, I'd have to say that the screen protector that comes with the kit is, for all intents and purposes, worthless - unless you cut it down. It's just a hair too wide to fit properly on the screen and after about ten minutes of trying to get it properly applied, removing it, trying to apply it again, removing it again, et cetera, I just said to heck with it and threw it out as it had gathered enough dust from the local vicinity to put all kinds of bubbles under it. Save yourself the frustration and either get used to wiping down your screen or go get an actual Nook screen protector.

First off:If you're using your Nook in a vertical position (like a book), this will likely be great for you.

I, however, am using it mostly in a horizontal/landscape position. The case doesn't hold the Nook tightly enough, so it ends up shifting. The screen is then covered by the case and blocks my access to a small part of the screen. While it only shifts by a millimeter or so, it hinders my use of on screen buttons. Simply put, it isn't worthless in a landscape orientation, but it sure is close.

Second:The material looks nice enough. The way it fits the Nook is the problem.. I really thought the case would form fit the device after a few weeks. I've had the case for 8 months and it still performs just as bad.

I'll give it a couple of stars because it does (attempt to) hold my nook in a landscape or portrait position. Most other cases are portrait only.

If lost or stolen...I'd look for a better brand. Not impressed

Note to manufacturer: Put some low profile velcro on the tab that goes under the tablet. I've tried a few times. I can't seem to find velcro with a low enough profile and end up with an ugly bulge AND I can't get it to stick long term. When it is able to stick, the majority of my complaints are resolved (would earn 4 stars!). If added during manufacturing, you would be able to sew in a patch of velcro for a proper solution.
